Court resets Bailey Garrison case to August term; parties waive speedy-trial deadline

At a June 4, 2025 readiness hearing, the presiding judge reset the case of Bailey Garrison to the August trial term and set interim scheduling dates after the parties said a related felony case was affecting when the matter could proceed.

The case was continued at the request of defense counsel to allow time for a felony case that counsel said could affect resolution. The city prosecutor agreed to the request, and defense counsel and the city agreed to waive the speedy-trial deadline to accommodate the continuance. The court set an interim readiness/check-in for July 21 at 9 a.m., a readiness hearing for July 30 at 2 p.m., and trial for August 5, 2025. The court estimated the speedy-trial expiration as October 20–21, 2025, based on the parties' scheduling calculations.

Dustin Burke appeared for Bailey Garrison and placed his appearance on the record on behalf of the defendant. Counsel asked that the court move the case to the August trial term and said coordination with the felony matter made an earlier trial date impractical. The city prosecutor confirmed the city's agreement with the requested scheduling and the waiver of speedy trial. The court ordered the July and August dates and directed the clerk to mail the new dates to the defendant's address on file.

This action was a scheduling order and not a determination on guilt or plea offers. The parties framed their request around the need to see how the separate felony case progresses; there was no formal plea or resolution recorded at the hearing. The clerk will mail the new court dates to the defendant's last-known address.
